Creme Egg Chocolate Chip Cookies

Friday, 25 March 2016

These creme egg chocolate chip cookies make a delicious Easter treat. Emily had so much fun making these, I made sure I left a few plain encase she didn't like the creme eggs, but I shouldn't have worried as she loved them!

Ingredients125g butter

100g light brown soft sugar

125g caster sugar

1 egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

225g self-raising flour

200g chocolate chips

How to make them?

- Preheat the oven to 180C- Cream together the butter and two sugars, I would recommend leaving the butter until it is softened before making these- Add the egg and vanilla extract

- Sift in the flour and then add the chocolate chips

- Divide into balls and place on a baking tray. I then cut mini creme eggs in half and Emily placed them on top of the cookies.

- Bake for 10 minutes, I usually bake them for 7 because I like them a little gooey but it is up to you.

Emily absolutely loved making these, she really enjoys baking on the whole and can't wait to get involved. Whenever I get out the mixing bowl she runs straight to the table. She loved adding the chocolate chips into the mixture even though she did it one cube at a time, and we were there for quite a while. Emily also loved tasting the cookie mixture - she loves to reassure me that it tastes good before we cook it.
